am developing an application which requires a consecutive searching side to it. Basically, I need a function or a class which takes an array as the parameter, and return the possible 3 consecutive numbers in a 2 dimensional array.For example, if I have this code:
ActionScript Code:
//Global array
var glob:Array=[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9];
[code]......
What's the most effective way to find a number of consecutive elements inside an array?
To give a really basic example, if one had:
var array:Array = [0,1,0,1,1,1,0];
What would be the best way to detect the three consecutive 1s?
I have been playing around with array.some() but it ain't really working out

I have an array which I am populating as I navigate through the site. Sometimes due to cicumstances apparently out of my control, I end up with two (never more) duplicate values consecutively placed in my array, here is an example:
groceries = ["bananas", "apples", "apples", "oranges"];
I need to run a script at all times that checks to see if this happens, and removes the second duplicate value, as well as it's corresponding key.How can I do this?
I have an object that moves to wherever the mouse is clicked, I need to be able to determine the angle at which it is moving like so

How do I find the digit sum of a floating point number?* (Eg Math.pow(10,100)). The correct answer would be 1. I have tried writing two functions, function A does not work for floating point numbers due to it converting numbers to strings, function B does not work for Math.pow(10,100) and other floating point numbers).
Specially: (1 with X zeros) % 10 = not 0, according to flash.
*Alternatively, what method can I use that gives me the last digit of a floating point number, and works for 1 with some number of zeros?
My functions:
private function getDSum(input:Number):Number {
var res:Number = 0;
for(var i = 0; i < input.toString().length+1; i++){

I have been using Actionscript 3.0 in Adobe Flash Builder for a few weeks,and I really like it! Bare with me because I'm not really good at it, yet. Anyway, I was wondering how would I go by adding up odd numbers from an array of numbers? I know how to make all of the numbers add up, but adding only the odd numbers I'm not so sure how to do it.
View 5 RepliesThe Setup: For each movieclip the hittests a set of "target" movieclips an array is given a value. If mcIcon1 is dropped onto mcTarget1 the first number in the vacant array is given the value of one. The Issue: If I remove mcIcon1, for example, from the mcTarget1 movieclip I can't find a way of just removing the 1 from that array without the rest of the array numbers being reset.

This should be a simple one. I am running an IF statement that needs to check the 5th value in a pre-populated array. I'm finding it hard to find the right method of searching the array.
[Code]....
indexOf seems to just return where the value is...but I already know where it is! I just want to know WHAT it is! There will also be values that are exactly the same in other positions in the array. I have to focus in specifically on the 5th value.
I am wondering if Flash has a built in way of finding if a value in an array exists. IndexOf only works with string values, but I couldn't find any function that tries to find a value of any data type in an array.
If there isn't one, I will just end up using this:
Code:
contains = function (array, input) {
for (i=0; i<array.length; i++) {
if (array[i] == input) {
return 1;
}
}
};
I am trying not to use my own functions for things that Flash already has built-in, so I just want to double check with you all in case I missed something
So my array has 5 numbers in it and also the ability to add more to it as the user sees fit.I want to be able to display the max and min number in the array. I made a loop but i am not sure how to make it select the highest or lowest number automatically without me selecting it manually by typing it in.This is my code for determining this:
// Determine Min and Max Markfunction maxandminMark(){var markIndex:int;markIndex=(marks.indexOf(marks));if (markIndex != -1){ for (var i = markIndex; i < marks.length; i++) marks[i] = marks[i+1]; trace(maxandminMark);}}}

How do I find number of all the series (combinations of an array that have at least 3 consecutive values, like [7,8,9]) and have the longest number of values?
from [3,4,1,2,2] it would be 2 - ([1,2,3,4] twice, but ignore [1,2,3]*2 and [2,3,4]*2)
from [9,6,7,5,8] it would be 1 - ([5,6,7,8,9])
[Code]....
this will create an array ($ranks) that will have these values [2:2, 3:1, 4:1, 9:1]
from this I will be able to multiply the values under 2,3 ad4 4 and multiply them by 3, so I would get 2*1*1 * 3
how to find the consecutive values, and ignore ones that aren't (like the 9)
Is there a method or something that will add up all the values in an array and give me a total?
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to find a simple way to solve this problem: I have an array of integers and need to find the highest value that is unique.Specifically, my array holds player scores. Ex: (4,7,6,5,2,7)I need a function that will give me the highest score that it is not tied with another score. So for the example above, it would return 6 (not 7 since there are two 7's)
View 9 Repliesi was looking at the tutorial Finding Values in an Array here and was wondering if i could replace
Code:
dataValues = [10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2];
with a string value thats is read from a text box eg,
Code:
dataValues = [myStringValue];
. myStringValue holds
Code:
"1,2,3,4,5,6,7"
and only finds it if i type in the full value, how do i get it to find each value seperatley after each comma? Everytime i try that it doesnt work correctly.
I have an array with about 80 variables in it and everything is working fine, but I can't seem to figure out how to produce a variable name from the array. Example: I sort my array to get the highest value, then I cannot retrieve the actual name of the variable that holds the value.

I looked into "toString" and toLocaleString but they also gives me the number value.
what to do in order to find the number of sequences in an array? for example: my array is: banana, banana, apple, banana, banana. what shell i do in order to get the numbers: 2,1,2? (2 bananas, 1 apple, 2 bananas).
View 3 RepliesI'm just trying to find the size of a array I created. I know how to find the size of the swf and movieclips with getBytesTotal but that doesn't seem to work for arrays. anyone know of a method to find this or some built in function. I searched google and other search engines but only find the getBytesTotal command for use with MCs.
View 3 Repliesam creating a drag and drop activity which utilizes arrays to populate my 'drag' and 'drop' components with their parameters.So far, I am able to get all the drags to work (with a little a few days ago from the boards showthread.php?t=825222) . My problem now is that I need to register which 'drop' is being hit so that I can update the variables for that drop. However, as the drops are in an array, any time I reference that array it uses the information from the third and final drop, even if drop one or two are hit.Here is my code:
PHP Code:
var usingDrop:Number;
//the vars below are specific to each drop and used to be declared in the drop array - i

View 9 RepliesI am currently working on a tile based game in Flash, so im working with a two dimensional Array containing the data for the map the player can jump around in. The script is already able to find all the groups within the Array. In the following example Array it groups the left ones and the right using the zero tiles to divide them:
[1,1,0,0],
[1,0,0,1],
[1,0,0,1],
[1,0,1,1]
I am already able to get the corners of the groups, but still they are not in the correct order. As well some corners exist twice.
get the corners in the correct order and how to get rid of the doubles?

How can i do a function that checks periodically if an array is null or not?
View 2 RepliesI just read the tutorial "Finding Values in an Array". Sure, the code works, but that's only because we are searching arrays the contain a small number of elements. Suppose we have n elements in an array. To search that array for a particular element we may have to do n comparisons. If the array we are searching contains 10 million elements, we have a problem; can you imagine doing "if (this == that)" 10 million times? There's got to be a better way to search the array. Or perhaps we shouldn't use arrays to store the information.
